Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco said Thursday that he'd be willing to restructure his contract if it helped the Ravens become a contender.

Flacco signed a six-year, $120 million contract in 2013 and will have a salary cap hit of $28.55 million in 2016. That might make it difficult for the Ravens to sign free agents to help fill holes on a team that went 5-11 this past season while battling injuries.

"I want to win and do everything we can to get something done," Flacco told WBAL radio in Baltimore. "I don't know exactly what that will be because we haven't talked about it yet. I know it's a huge number and not realistic. I'm open to doing something. I want to be here for a while and play football here. That's what it's all about."

Flacco is still rehabbing from a torn ACL and MCL suffered against the Rams on Nov. 22. The Ravens also lost both wide receiver Steve Smith and linebacker Terrell Suggs to a ruptured Achilles, safety Matt Elam to a torn biceps, running back Justin Forsett to a broken arm, rookie receiver Cam Worthy to a broken foot, left tackle Eugene Monroe to a shoulder injury, and also had tight end Crockett Gillmore, defensive lineman Chris Canty and wideout Breshad Perriman all miss time because of injuries.

"We have a lot of young guys who want to win," Flacco said. "I think you can see how we competed in the end. We never gave up, and that showed a lot about who were are.

"Any chance you get to spend time with these kids, it will change your life in a really positive way. Just their outlook on everything and the excitement that they bring to every aspect of their life."
